Intention is my 53' Ketch that sails in Greece with guests. Come sail the Dodecanese in style and comfort this summer.

So happy to have some old friends onboard. We had some ideal conditions and we made the most of it! #SailingGreece.

Installed a new bimini with 680 watts of solar. I'm lovin' it! Great visibility, nice and cool during the hot summer days, and the batteries are charged all the time! It's been a year since I posted a video, maybe I'll start doing more!

Steve is stuck in the boatyard in Aegina, Greece during Covid so it's a good time to drop the mizzen mast and complete a bunch of jobs. Pulling that mast was easier than spending a whole day up in the bosun's chair! Filmed May, 2020.

We love to have talented people onboard -- who doesn't?! Ciaran Whyte is a talented, up and coming musician who sailed with us in Greece two years ago. Next time, we're going to record him more professionally and make him a righteous music video. Anyone else interested?

SV Intention Crew goes to San Francisco to take the US Sailing "Offshore Safety at Sea" Training. After all, we want to be a safe crew!

She's going to be beautiful!! Painting the Masts, Deck, Topsides, Hull and engine room! Whewy!!

If we paint the freeboard and not the deck and superstructure, no one will notice our great work. So, we decided to paint the whole boat..

After a fun trip around Turkey with Michelle, it's back to work! In this video vapor blast the masts and hull. What a job! Got a question? Let me know.

Okay, we're ready to pull the masts. Went off without a hitch!!

After a discouraging start to the Intention refit, things are cruising along now! Here, we prepped Intention's two masts for pulling.

Sometimes you're on top of the world, getting things done, and sometimes you're "fighting through mud" This is my list of "142 Boat Repairs" on one of my more difficult days.

Hello, friends. Looking forward to a great 2019 of making Intention look beautiful again and sailing the Mediterranean with you! Please subscribe to my channel by clicking subscribe to the right ---

We got no bow thruster! Really hard to maneuver these big Amels without it. So, we're going to replace the propeller by taking the bow thruster out of the boat while the boat's still in the water. Good luck! This repair was part of the repairs we did in Ginesta, Spain before heading across the Mediterranean.

People often ask where we sailed so far. Here's our route from 2018.

New Fridge!! Yeah!! Stay cool and sail on.

Okay, got the Turbo off, now what?! I found the turbo specialists in Barcelona -- Turbo3. They are the service and distributors for many major turbo brands and a great company. The guy was so helpful. The local engine mechanic wanted me to buy a new turbo for --- (what for it)... 3,500 euro!! What are these guys gunna hit me up for?

How are the repairs going, Steve?
